I am from Maharashtra and guess minimum Sales turnover for MVAT here in 5 lacs

We are primarily in services business, but there is a one off Sales turnover this year which is not specifically related to the service business that we are in.

Presently I do not have VAT or Service Tax registration Is it necessary for me to apply for VAT No or Service Tax no in above case?? Kindly suggest. Thanks in anticipation

Dear Vineet

I am assuming that

For ST you are complying with secton 67 (1)(iii) of FA,1994, which is amount determined with the STVR,2006 read with rule 2A.

For Service tax :No need to register but there is need if same service provider after exceeding aggregate value of Rs.9 Lacs under section 69(2) read with rule 3 of ST(RSCP) Rules,2005

For VAT : Dealer shall get register in prescribed form as per state Vat Act Provisions and If his turnover in the current year exceeds the taxable quantum. White paper provides Rs. 10 lacs as taxable quantum.

Eg In Delhi this limit has been increased to Rs. 20 lacs in year 2013 for major relief to small dealers and other business community.

In Maharashtra , I think this limit is Rs 5Lacs
